Nottingham Forest duo Elliot Anderson and Nikola Milenković were in action for England and Serbia respectively on Thursday evening as the nations clashed at Wembley Stadium in the Group K FIFA World Cup qualifier.
The Forest pair both started in north London, with Anderson completing 85 minutes of the contest before being withdrawn in the 85th minute.
Milenković meanwhile played the full 90 minutes for Serbia on his return to the Eagles’ starting XI.
